We’ve spent this year looking back on our first 30 years and today we’re filled with gratitude for you. Civic Works was created in 1993 as a place where youth in Baltimore could go to learn job skills and to serve their communities. We’ve always believed that both are important. Although we’ve expanded to include people of all ages and communities outside of Baltimore, Civic Works is still a place where everyone has something to learn and everyone can serve.
